For the essay, you must answer the following questions: Sean and Denise come to your office complaining that their six-year-old son Bradley shows signs of being both belligerent and depressed. They also say that he engages in antisocial behaviors (relative to his age). When you ask them some questions as part of your assessment, you realize that each parent differs in parenting style: Sean is authoritarian, and Denise is permissive. After the session, you have decided that you will put into writing information about parenting styles that you think will help them. In your writing, you will cover the following topics: - What each parenting style is - authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved - and how that affects the way parents raise their children. - What the short-term and long-term consequences are for each style. - The effects of growing up with parents who constantly disagree with each other. - What these parents can do to improve their (and their son's) situation. - What these parents can do to encourage empathy and prosocial behavior in their son.

According to research, the most advantageous parenting style for children's development is (A) authoritarian, because children learn boundaries quickly and appreciate consistency. (B) permissive, because young children need to explore the environment more than they need guidelines for behavior. (C) authoritarian, because it combines the best elements of the permissive and authoritative styles (D) securely attached, because children are confident parents will meet their needs. (E) authoritative, because children have boundaries that are reasonable and justified.
